During World War 2 all the white american men were fighting they needed more soldiers, so they started making African Americans group so the African American men could still fight and serve their country and so they weren't close to the white american soldiers because the Civil Rights movement still wasn't happening until the 1960's. The women got to work more and got paid more then they usually did, and they also got more opportunities to do "men" work like putting together bombs. Japanese Americans weren't so lucky because after Pearl Harbor America thought that there was Japanese spies hiding in the U.S.A so the Americans put the Japanese in Recollection camps even though the United States were still cautious of the Japanese they did let the Japanese fight but not in the Pacific front they only let them fight on the European front so they couldn't send messages to their homeland.
